How about using the search function, this has been beaten to death with literally hundreds of posts on the subject. Yes it is a benefit.

In my gallery are new pics of a clean and clogged EGR valve (added today).

Unplugging may or may not throw a code - depends on year and PCM program your running - some stock programs do and some do not depending on the year of your truck (don't ask me... but I do not know which years).

Warrenty.... maybe, but I guess you could claim that it must have come loose on its own? If you disconnect, do it when the motor is "off" so it will be closed.
